The Fleeting Nature Of Life

⁵ Lo, handbreadths Thou hast made my days, And mine age is as nothing before Thee, Only, all vanity is every man set up. Selah. ⁶ Only, in an image doth each walk habitually, Only, in vain, they are disquieted, He heapeth up and knoweth not who gathereth them. ⁷ And, now, what have I expected? O Lord, my hope -- it is of Thee.
